That is a great read, but I wonder if it underestimates the NSA and overestimates what any sizable segment of patriots are willing to do. It is quite believable as to what the tyrant would be willing to do if he felt it was necessary.

The long sobs of the violins of Autumn, Wound my heart with a monotonous Languor.

Very good. I understand the reference, having studied the poet Paul Verlaine during my university days. For those who do not know, this line from Verlaine's poem Chanson d'automne was used as a signal to the French resistance in 1944 that the Allied invasion was imminent.

History repeating itself. This happened in the 30’s. WW1 vets were bullied to leave the Capital by our own army.

And a lot of people here seem to think that today's military and police would never go along with orders to turn their men and weapons on americans. Fools. All of them. Were the officers who gave and followed orders to assault the WWI vets tried and hung? No. In fact those officers are some of the most repected and idolized men of the 20th century. One even spent two terms in the white house.

I’ve never seen an M-N dressed up like that. Nice. ;-)

Try...just try it. Give another vivid reason to unite against a government than no longer serves it’s people.

“On Tuesday, the liberal New Republic published an article that was a not-so-subtle suggestion that Barack Obama use military force against the Tea Party in the same manner Boris Yeltsin used it against hardliners in his government nearly 20 years ago.”

If I recall, the first business to go boom whenever the people take back their country from tyrannical dictators is the media.

Too bad I lost my weapons in that tragic boating accident. I was warned not to clean my weapons on a boat in calm seas. But did I listen? Noooooo.

She is cute, I will withhold judgement on her innocents for the time being, given the gravity of the charges against her.

A modern version might be something like:

Listen, my children, and you shall hear,
Of the midnight ride by Paul Revere.

Or other such similar references...

“...what three of you seem to share about a mustache and a chair...”

From the original “Red Dawn”: “The chair is against the wall” & “John has a long mustache” were code messages broadcast to Americans in Soviet occupied territory to signal the start of armed resistance.

The “Wolverines” went into action soon afterward.

The IRS has a list of quite a few of them.

What a coincidence, the list the IRS was putting together against the “TEA Party Terrorist” was started just a few months before there was an attempted terrorist attack in NYC which they tried to blame on the TEA Party.

The dems talking points now are an exact repeat of their talking points prior to the terrorist attack in 2010.

Maybe that’s why Obama has been arming up every federal agency. His army loyal to him.

I’m giving it less than a month.

Everything coming out of the WH, the dems, and their allies in the MSM is an exact repeat of what happened prior to the attempted terrorist attack in NYC in 2010 which they tried to blame on the TEA Party.

Ioffe is simply following the natural inclinations of all lib/leftists which is to crush all dissent from their policies....if necessary, to use violence. I comment Ioffe for at least being honest in her totalitarian feelings...something many leftists stop short of. Of course, they’d like to see dissenters i.e. conservatives rounded up into concentration camps, but most stop a little short of demanding violent measures.

Could you just imagine being a red state liberal if the vigilantism were to start? This has occurred throughout our history as a nation too.

Honestly though, I believe too many of their own party would revolt to such nonsense. Sadly, we are destined to suffer 8 years of each Party until financial ruin occurs.

I wonder if Julia would think it OK for a Republican to use same force against a number of leftist orgs for being in opposition to the reigning administration...I believe that if it comes to actual war, the Right will prevail.

I second that. This has earmarks of being planned for years, and I think they feel that they are ready for the Big Show.

Things never do change with them. This is no different than Bill Ayers sitting around and planning where they were going to build the re-education camps for all of us.
